What types of decisions are ren-
dered, and how do I know if
Lexus will abide by the decision
of the arbitrator(s)?
Arbitrated decisions are based on
what the arbitrator(s) believe to be
fair and equitable after applying the
appropriate legal standards. Remedies
include but are not limited to repairs;
reimbursement for repairs and inci-
dental expenses, such as towing costs;
and repurchase or replacement of
your vehicle.
The decision of the arbitrator(s) is
binding on Lexus but not on you.
Lexus must comply with the decision
shortly after it is rendered, usually
within 30 days of your acceptance
of the decision. NCDS will contact
you within 10 days of scheduled
compliance to ensure that Lexus
has complied in a timely manner. Are there limits to the scope
of arbitrated decisions?
Arbitrated decisions do not include:
• Attorney fees
• Punitive damages
• Multiple damages
• Consequential damages, other
than incidental damages that you
may be entitled to under law
What other recourse do I have?
If you are dissatisfied with the arbitra-
tor’s decision or Lexus’ compliance,
you may pursue any other legal reme-
dies available to you, including small
claims court. You should be aware
that the decision of the arbitrator(s)
is admissible as evidence in any legal
proceedings concerning your vehicle.

Program subject to change?
